conditions. Similarly, the purpose of this book is not to provide a detailed anatomic description of
each region but rather to limit the scope to the most clinically relevant information. Veterinary
anatomic textbooks will provide a useful resource to the reader seeking more detailed anatomic
descriptions. Additionally, since this book is focused on the diagnosis of lameness, treatment
options are only briefly mentioned. The reader should consult other texts for detailed information
on the best management of each individual condition. Recommended anatomy, surgery, and neu-
rology resources include the following texts: Evans and De Lahunta (2013), Tobias and Johnston
(2013), Dewey and Da Costa (2016), and Fossum (2018).
The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more
places you’ll go.
